Using the sequence programming concept, create a flowchart and a java program that will read four resistors, determine and output the total resistance in terms of series and in terms of parallel connection. TYPE OF CONNECTION: SERIES: Formula to compute total resistance: total resistance= resistor1 + resistor 2+...+resistor N PARALLEL: Formula to compute total resistance: total resistance=1/((1/resistor1)+(1/resistor2)+...+(1/resistorN)) Depicted below is a sample input/output when the program is executed (the values in bold are inputted by the user, while the values in bold italics are calculated and outputted by the program): Resistor Computation Enter Resistor1: 2.34 Enter Resistor2: 4.23 Enter Resistor3: 6.72 Enter Resistor4: 5.56 Total Resistance Series Connection: 18.85 Parallel Connection: 1.007635168 Resistor Computation Enter Resistor1: 3.34 Enter Resistor2: 2.23 Enter Resistor3: 7.20 Enter Resistor4: 6.82 Total Resistance Series Connection: 19.59 Parallel Connection: 0.967728063
Operations
In mathematics and computer science, an operation is an event that is carried out to satisfy a given task. Basic operations of a computer system are input, processing, output, storage, and control.
Basic Operators
An operator is a symbol that indicates an operation to be performed. We are familiar with operators in mathematics; operators used in computer programming are—in many ways—similar to mathematical operators.
Division Operator
We all learnt about division—and the division operator—in school. You probably know of both these symbols as representing division:
Modulus Operator
Modulus can be represented either as (mod or modulo) in computing operation. Modulus comes under arithmetic operations. Any number or variable which produces absolute value is modulus functionality. Magnitude of any function is totally changed by modulo operator as it changes even negative value to positive.
Operators
In the realm of programming, operators refer to the symbols that perform some function. They are tasked with instructing the compiler on the type of action that needs to be performed on the values passed as operands. Operators can be used in mathematical formulas and equations. In programming languages like Python, C, and Java, a variety of operators are defined.
Using the sequence
TYPE OF CONNECTION:
SERIES:
Formula to compute total resistance:
total resistance= resistor1 + resistor 2+...+resistor N
PARALLEL:
Formula to compute total resistance:
total resistance=1/((1/resistor1)+(1/resistor2)+...+(1/resistorN))
